Favourite Images?
Posted: Wed 16 Aug 2017, 08:40
At present, I am looking into the topic of perception. How we perceive is subject to a number of factors, including agenda, assumptions and life experience. Mood also plays a part. All that means our perception can change over time, even relatively short periods. It also means that perception varies across individuals, as judges frequently demonstrate. Even identical twins will not necessarily perceive in the same way since the influences to which they are exposed will differ in the course of their lives, after childhood in particular.

The phenomenom where we can like a shot at the time of taking, yet its appeal fades over time and vice versa is fascinating. It got me thinking about our own work. Do you have a favourite image in your own portfolio? Are there any images which you have taken which have proven to grow on you? If so, why not share them here and say what you like about them? Reviewing our images and looking at the likes of others can only help strengthen us all as photographers.
